Thanks to Peter Eisentraut, Bruce Momjian and Tom Lane.
With the second CVS commit by Bruce Momjian it works fine now.

I stand corrected.

In my environment everything but LANG is set to tr_TR:
$ locale
LANG=tr_TR
LC_CTYPE="tr_TR"
LC_NUMERIC="tr_TR"
LC_TIME="tr_TR"
LC_COLLATE="tr_TR"
LC_MONETARY="tr_TR"
LC_MESSAGES="tr_TR"
LC_PAPER="tr_TR"
LC_NAME="tr_TR"
LC_ADDRESS="tr_TR"
LC_TELEPHONE="tr_TR"
LC_MEASUREMENT="tr_TR"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="tr_TR"
LC_ALL=
$
Method you suggested:
LC_COLLATE=C
export LC_COLLATE
works fine too.

It works as expected. Thanks a lot.
